Build a solar storage tank easily with this complete kit from Vittascience, a young French company. For personal or educational use, the solar balloon can be taken in hand by the youngest to discover the magic of the flight of a solar balloon, as well as by professionals, in addition to having a unique use of solar energy. Take a camera on board for aerial shots or imagine a unique experience
How does it work ?
Using the user guide in the kit, or this link, install a 4-metre diameter solar storage tank.
Once done, tie it to its 50 m rope and wait for the ideal time, a windless day, with sunshine and as little cloud as possible, for a takeoff in 5 minutes.
Use the rope to recover the balloon and let it deflate. Flat, it can be folded and stored in a backpack. If it gets damaged, tape is enough to repair it.
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SOLAR STORAGE KIT
The kit consists of the following components:
- Black polyethylene 30m x 1m
- Two handles with 50m of strings
- A pair of scissors
- Two adhesive rolls
- A spindle pattern
- User guide
Just to Know
- Balloon diameter: 4 meters
- Use only on a windless day, with sunshine and cloudless skies for a quick takeoff (about 5 minutes)
- Always tie the balloon with the 50-meter rope
- Avoid deconstructing it, as it is very fragile
- To repair it, tape is enough
OPTIMAL CONDITIONS FOR BALLOON FLIGHT
- Use only on a windless day, with sunshine and cloudless skies for a quick takeoff (about 5 minutes)
- The season does not impact the balloon’s capabilities
- The balloon must be attached with the rope in the kit. It can fly up to 50 metres, as permitted by law. If the balloon is dropped, the chances of recovering it are minimal and the data unrecoverable (we tried)
